MMR vaccine

Cross posted in 12 to 24 months toddlers.

My 18 month old got the mmr vaccine last Friday morning. I'm writing this now the following Monday night. She threw up Friday night after the bedtime bottle and again Sunday night after the bedtime bottle. Tonight she hasn't puked so far but it sounds like she's coughing/gagging in bed. She is generally not a puker at all which is why I'm wondering whether I should be concerned. Otherwise, all signs point to normal no fever, eating well, generally upbeat demeanor.

Baby of a friend of mine had a horrific reaction to the mmr, requiring hospitalization, so it may be I'm just hyper alert. Anyone have any input about their child's reaction to the mmr vaccination?

If you're worried I would call her dr
ETA after reading the second poster I realize I probably sound like an as. I just wanted to say I was being sincere.

I would call a doctor. Nausea and vomiting are mild and normal side effects and so is coughing. About 1 in 3 infants develop a respiratory infection after receiving the vaccine. 1 in 100 children develop pneumonia though. I think it's best to be safe rather than sorry. I hope your LO feels better soon!

My older daughter had a mild reaction, but it was just a slight fever and she was acting normal otherwise. I agree with PP's. I would call a doctor just to be safe.

Hope she feels better soon!

There are a bunch of toxins in vaccines, haven't you ever read the ingredients in those things?
